Filter by:To determine the effectiveness of muscle energy technique along conventional physical therapy after mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in knee Osteoarthritis patients regarding Pain, range of motion, functional disability and quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to test the OA Clinic-Community CARE Model (OA CARE) which will address all recommended components of knee/hip (osteoarthritis) OA care, include interventions for both patients and primary care providers (PCPs), and utilize a tailored approach that efficiently matches treatments with patients' needs. The patient component of OA CARE will include evidence-based weight management and exercise programs for all participants (delivered through the YMCA), as well as tailored referrals to physical therapy, additional weight management or nutrition services, sleep-related services and psychological services. The PCP component of OA CARE will include a video-based summary of current OA treatment guidelines (with emphasis on practical application), collaboration on patients' referrals to specific services described above, and progress reports on enrolled patients.
This trial is a post marketing clinical follow up study, aiming to evaluate the performance and safety of ORTHIX PLUS for pain relief in patients suffering from osteoarthritis or degenerative joint diseases. The study will involve 54 subjects, who will be enrolled in 2 centers in Turkey. The primary objective is to evaluate the overall performance of ORTHIX PLUS in providing relief in patients suffering from painful knee ostearthritis or degenerative joint diseases when used according to indications for use. The first secondary objective is to evaluate the overall performance of ORTHIX PLUS in providing relief when used according to indications for use, at different time points. The other secondary objective is to evaluate the overall safety during the study period.
The purpose of this clinical study was to determine whether gold nanoparticles (AuNP) supplement holds clinical value in improving joint health, function, and quality of life for arthritis patients.
The aim of the study is to assess safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of XSTEM-OA when administered as a single intra-articular injection to patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis. The study is divided into two parts; a dose escalation (Part A) and an optional dose expansion part (Part: B). Three dose levels are planned to be evaluated in Part A and selected dose level(s) may be further expanded in Part B.
This clinical trial studies the use of 7-Tesla (7T)and 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting osteoarthrosis. 7T MRI has increased detection sensitivity, including more accurate lesion delineation, higher inter-rater agreement. Diagnostic procedures such as 7T MRI may help ultimately improved diagnostic and therapies confidence to inform decision making than standard 3T MRI.
This multi-site study involving Northwestern Medicine, Beaumont Health, and Loyola Medicine seeks to answer the following question: do patients who undergo subscapularis (SSc) repair during reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) have better post-operative outcomes than patients who do not undergo SSc repair during RSA? The investigators hypothesize that patients who do not undergo SSc repair during RSA have better post-operative outcomes than patients who undergo SSc repair during RSA. This study will address the controversy surrounding SSc repair during RSA via a multi-institutional randomized controlled trial that will compare clinical outcomes of patients who receive SSc repair during RSA to those who do not.
Knee osteoarthritis is one of the most common causes of pain and loss of function in the elderly population and is a source of socioeconomic costs. Selective denervation of the superior medial, superior lateral and inferior medial genicular nerves, which provide the sensory innervation of the knee joint, is an effective treatment method used to relieve pain and improve functional capacity. Radiofrequency neurolysis of genicular nerves (RFN) is accepted as an effective technique for the treatment of knee pain. However, due to higher equipment costs, longer procedure times, and procedure-related pain, alternative treatments are needed.
Knee osteoarthritis is a progressive degenerative and non-inflammatory joint disorder. Due to the extensive use and stress placed on knee joint, it is a common site for painful disorders such as knee osteoarthritis. It is seen that medial side of knee is most commonly affected because of weight bearing on medial side. Symptomatically, the knee joint is most commonly affected in osteoarthritis because it requires support, high mobility, and insufficient internal stability. Osteoarthritis of the knee joint affects three parts of the knee joint (medial, lateral, and patellar-femoral joints) and develops slowly, usually over 10-15 years, interfering with daily activities Slow and gentle movements like Tai Chi, Isometric, iso-kinetic and isotonic exercises are considered helpful in increasing joint range of motion and physical function. Stretching and aquatic therapy can also decrease pain and enhance joint flexibility. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of Mulligan rotational movement vs Medial gapping technique on pain, range of motion and disability in knee osteoarthritis. This study will be a randomized control trial and will be conducted in Riphah clinics and LGH. The study will be completed within the time duration of six months. Non-probability convenient sampling technique will be used to collect the data. Those who will meet the inclusion criteria will be recruited in the group. The sample size of patients with knee osteoarthritis will be taken in this study to find the effects of Mulligan Rotational movements vs. Medial gap technique, aged between 20-40 years, will be allocated to an intervention or control group. The scales used for recording findings will be goniometer, visual analogue scale and modified disability index. Subjects will randomly divide into control group called group A Taking Mulligan therapy and Interventional group called group B taking Median Gapping Technique. 12 sessions over 6 weeks were performed on both groups. Data analysis will be done by SPSS version 25.
The purpose of this study is to determine the intra-articular and serum levels of vancomycin over the first 24 hours postoperatively after intra-articular administration of a standard dose of vancomycin in primary total knee arthroplasty.
